the days: 1 Samuel 18:21
expired: Heb. fulfilled
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when his servants told David these words,.... That the king desired no other dowry than an hundred foreskins of the Philistines:
it pleased David well to be the king's son in law; on such conditions; partly because of the honour of it, and partly because of his love to Michal; and chiefly because it would give him an opportunity of destroying the enemies of God, and of his people, as well as such a match would lead the way, and be a step in Providence to ascend the throne designed for him in due time:
and the days were not expired; neither for the bringing in of the foreskins, nor for the consummation of the marriage.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The days were not expired - David was so rapid in his attack upon the Philistines that he was able to bring the required dowry within the time, and to receive his wife (Michal), before the time had expired within which he was to receive Merab.
